Preface. Playing with the universe
The unpaired spinning electron
Parking in the shadow of magnetism's forgotten man
Into whose embrace iron leaps
The Earth;s magnetic soul
Voyage into the underworld
The greatest scientific undertaking the world had ever seen
The rock that turned the world upside down
A very intimate relationship
The bookbinder's apprentice
The lines that fill the air
Pharaohs, fairies, and a tar-paper shack
Zebra skins under the sea
At the outer edge of the dynamo
The worst physics movie ever
The great hazardous spinning sphere of sodium
Horrors the lights foretold
Trout noses and pigeon beaks
A suit of stiff black crayon.
